Drink water for 2 weeks and lose 6 pounds?

Question

Is this true that if the only liquid you drink for 2 weeks is water, you will lose 6 pounds? If so, how much water per day should you drink?

Answer 1

you will only lose water weight with no loss of body fat. starving the body is the exact opposite of what is needed for there to be accelerated fat loss.

Answer 2

Quickly throw this diet in the trash before you harm yourself. Drinking water ONLY for 2 weeks will rob your body of vital nutrients. Your body will begin to eat or feed upon its' stored nutrients in an effort to survive. You are risking losing more than pounds! Seek the advice of your doctor, a dietician or a person you respect for having made intelligent life choices.

Weight Loss Facts:

Low Fat Foods DON'T WORK.

You cannot lose weight using Low Fat Diets. Low fat foods have been popular for more than 15 years, but yet our society is getting more overweight as each year passes. This fact alone should tell you that eating a purely low fat menu is not the answer to losing weight.

Low Calorie Diets DON'T WORK.

You won't lose weight using a Low Calorie Dieting Plan either. In fact, eating low calories is the worst thing that you can do to your body, since that will only slow down your body's fat burning engine and ruin all chances of losing weight (low calorie diets may allow a few pounds of weight loss for the first few days, but then after that all weight loss comes to a halt --- known as a dieting plateau). You can never get slim by starving yourself.

Low Carb Plans DON'T WORK.

You'll probably find it extremely difficult to get slim using a Low Carb Dieting Plan. Low carb diets have recently become popular over the last couple years, but the problem with low carb menus is that they are too strict and TOO HARD TO FOLLOW for average people. Low carb menus tend to rob your body of too much energy (carbohydrates) and make it nearly impossible to remain on the program for very long. This is why so many dieters find it difficult to follow a strict low carbohydrate menu.

What about Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig Dieting Plans?

Weight loss programs such as Weight Watchers (and Jenny Craig) usually involve slower dieting progress over a longer period of time, since such programs generally promise only 2-3 pounds of weight loss per week. Also, programs such as Jenny Craig usually involve buying special meals and/or dietary supplements during the initial phases of the program. While some people may like these types of dietary programs, we prefer a dieting plan which focuses on faster weight loss, such as the Accelerated Fat Burning Program shown below...

Answer 4

A great way to lose weight is to drink whatever you want, but drink before you eat. You will end up eating less and losing weight.

Answer 5

well if you only drink ater it is a good thing but you have to eat also and eat healthy foods. but you should drink about 4, 16oz bottles a day or more or 8, 8oz bottles. but it really depends on your weight how much water you drink. if you are bigger you should drink maybe 6, 16oz bottles.

Answer 6

get moving

Answer 7

you'll probably lose more than that.

how healthy it is, however....
but! i'm not going to lecture you.

i would figure you could drink as much water as you want. once your body starts breaking itself down, it will need lots of water to keep going.

Answer 8

Yes, you will loose probably even more, but most of your weight loss will be water and muscle protein. Not a good way to loose weight.

Answer 9

ya you should do it, it works. 2 gallons a day at least. i did it and lost 15 pound in a month

Answer 10

yah you would probably even lose more. its called fasting. just drinking water. but if you mean just water and food, no other rinks, then it depends how much you were drinking inthe 1st place
